Piracy release teams sentenced, fined

article published on 30 September, 2012

Five men have been sentenced for their roles as part of the once popular piracy release team CiNEFOX and a group known as Carnage.

You don't get it do you!!!!

Most of these video sites have back doors of sites where they sell the file so if they have the files still on let's say a hidden drive somewhere online that the authority's havent found they will get there money back in less then 5 months and be able to pay off the fee's remember sites have ad's to generate revenue for there downloads where did the money go from advertising huh..

didn't see the cops take there money

You did read it?

It's a group of people taken to court for releasing movies online.

It's not a site, and because this was in France you are guilty and you have to prove you are Innocent so everyone would have been screwed because there's probably video of them going and seeing the movies.

Overall the end result seems ok, you don't go to jail but end up with a conviction but people would end up paying a low amount per movie.

Errr...Does anybody actually watch Cam or telesync releases? I have never seen one worth watching. Especialy cams. If I can't wait for a decent release I'll just go to the theater myself.


Just my $0.02,

Have to agree its not worth the risk and viewing time to watch a dodgy cam movie it spoils it when it turns out it was a good movie that you would have gone to the cinema to see - although that happens very rarely its part of the reason there is so much piracy. Who wants to pay £8 a ticket to see some rubbish, I cant remember the last time I saw a good movie at the cinema.
